Atrop-PD Paediatric Opthalmic Solution 5 ml belongs to a group of medicines called mydriatics and cycloplegics used to treat uveitis or iritis (inflammation in the eye) and myopia (near-sightedness). It is also indicated for cycloplegia (paralysis of the ciliary eye muscle), mydriasis (dilation of the pupil), and the penalisation of the healthy eye in the treatment of amblyopia (decreased eyesight due to abnormal vision development). Besides this, Atrop-PD Paediatric Opthalmic Solution 5 ml is also used before certain eye examinations to widen the pupil and to diagnose eye problems such as blurred vision in children below 6 years and in children with convergent strabismus (cross-eyes or squint).
 
Atrop-PD Paediatric Opthalmic Solution 5 ml contains ‘atropine’, which relaxes the muscles in the eye, thereby making the pupil of the eye appear larger. This makes it easier for an eye examination. Atrop-PD Paediatric Opthalmic Solution 5 ml reduces pain and allows the inflamed part of the eye to rest and recover by relaxing the eye muscles.
